Join Tim and his eleven-year-old son Elliot for a month of sacred reading — a journey that begins with a mustard seed and ends on a pebble-strewn beach in North Norfolk.What starts as classic Lectio Divina soon widens into something bigger: meditating on Bible stories, listening for meaning in His Dark Materials, tuning in to birdsong in a pine forest, and reading the shifting shapes of clouds and trees. Along the way, Elliot struggles with boredom, Tim wrestles with silence, and together they stumble into moments of wonder and humour.There are painted pebbles left for strangers, an anti-war poem crafted from museum signs, a quiz involving talking donkeys, and a reminder that sometimes the most ordinary things — dust, seeds, birds, background noise — have something to say if we pay attention.Through scripture, stories and landscapes, father and son explore how meaning emerges when we slow down, look closely, and let the world speak back.If you’re enjoying Homegrown Faith and want to support what we’re doing, you can head over to our Patreon page for bonus episodes and a bit of behind-the-scenes goodness.If signing up isn’t your thing but you’d still like to send some encouragement our way, a quick rating or review on your podcast app makes a big difference.Since the podcast is all audio, if you’d like to see what we’ve been up to, you can find photos and little glimpses of our journey over on Instagram and Facebook.And if you’d like to share your own experiences, ask us a question, or suggest a practice for a future episode, you can drop Tim an email here.Like the podcast, our theme music is also homegrown—written by Elliot and produced by our friend Wilderthorn.
